Breath Focus, or mindful breathing, requires users to focus on an image, word, or phrase that promotes joy or relaxation.
How to do it:
1) Find a comfortable position, either sitting up or lying down.
2) Pay attention to how you’re breathing while trying not to change it.
3) Switch between your normal breathing and deep breathing for a few minutes, noting how each technique produces different sensations in your body.
4) Continue deep breathing for a few minutes, placing a hand on your stomach to help you notice how it moves with your breathing.
5) Incorporate a loud sigh with every exhale.
6) Combine this with thoughts of your chosen image, word, or phrase.
7) Picture the air you breathe into your body bringing you peace and calm.
8) Then picture the air you breathe out taking your anxiety and tension with it.
9) Continue to do this for as long as desired.
We hope you find this exercise challenging and rewarding.
And, remember, you can do this anywhere, anytime -- when all you need is a little boost of positivity :)
